Fundraising For Animals In Need: Blog the Change #BtC4A

Hi, Athena here just jotting down some ideas to help Mum with the fund raising.

As we haven't raised quite as much money as we'd hoped from my book (why isn't it a bestseller???), Mum has decided to create some items in her Zazzle stores that are specifically for raising funds for the shelters we support. I must stress here that not all the items in our Zazzle shops are for raising charity funds because, let's face it, we need to eat and pay our bills.Mum is telling me she hates to talk about money, and it's true because she avoids it most of the time, especially with me. But it has to be said. Honestly, I hear her moaning to other humans about it all the time (and I can read her mind) so even if she doesn't talk to me about it I know everything. Yes Mum, you can't hide anything from me, I am a cat after all. And yes, a very wise one.Mum always moans about how much she hates having human problems and how she wishes she could just be a cat instead. Oh well, I do see her point because I don't wish to be a human either. But the thing is she has the power within her to at least learn to be calm like a cat. This is what I have been training her to do for ages, but she is so prone to anxiety, the poor woman. I love her very much and so I try to think calm thoughts for her and am always ready to supply extra purrs and cuddles for days (and nights) like that. So come on, Mum.Just be and live in the now.OK, I think that's calmed her down now as she's just given me the code for this new Pinterest board she created for the said fundraising items, so do check it out!

You're a gorgeous girl, Athena and I am going to go check out your book now. How wonderful that you and your mum are coming up with so many creative ways to raise money for rescue.Great to meet you thanks to the BTC hop!

It is so hard to do book promotion and generate sales - my human knows a LOT about this! She is always trying to think of something new. We need to beef up our Zazzle shop some more. Actually, I just think we need some beef - hey, I'm a cat!

Purrs can make life so much better - even the challenging parts are smoothed over with some loving purrs. You're much needed, Athena, by your mum in her troubled times. Best of wishes in your fundraising efforts, and keep purring!

Thank you for blogging - and being - the change for animals!Kim ThomasCindyLu's MuseBe the Change for Animals
